Chapter 115: Flattering

It was the beginning of autumn, but the weather was still hot. The afterheat this year was extra strong.

The night sky was dark, the air pressure was low, and it seemed that there was a storm coming.

Ye Jiayao was worried. She didn’t know what she’d do if it rained since both of them didn’t have an umbrella.

Helian Jing, on the other hand, was relaxed. As long as he was with Yaoyao, he wouldn’t care even if it hailed.

“Yaoyao, I am telling you, that Wei Liujiang is disgusting. He even has the nerve to say that we intentionally framed him!”

Ye Jiayao nodded sympathetically. Well, to be honest, they really did frame him. Chunyu planned this thing out so perfectly that Wei Liujiang wasn’t able to defend himself. However, to actually come outright and say that the Helian Royal Mansion framed him was equivalent to asking for a death sentence. Helian Mansion had nothing against him, who would believe him of that accusation?

“You really cannot find the servant? What will you do now?” Ye Jiayao asked curiously.

Helian Jing sneered, “My mother said that Wei Liujiang and his wife are dogs. It’s possible that they had worked together to set First Lady Ye up. Now, they even dare deny it and accuse the Helian Mansion? Mother will not let this go that easily. My brother has already sent people to Yang Zhou to investigate.”

Ye Jiayao hid her astonishment. Was it really possible? She had thought that Wei Liujiang was a kind man because the servants of the Wei Mansion adored him. She was not so sure now. And if she actually thought about it, it was indeed strange that he did not care when his real wife was taken away by the bandits. Instead, he immediately moved on to Jinrong. If that didn’t scream cold-blooded man, she didn’t know what will.

Ye Jiayao mused, “Since Second Lady Ye substituted for the First Lady Ye, then the Ye and Wei families must’ve covered up for it, too. It would be hard to find anything that can incriminate them.”

Helian Jing smiled coldly. “The truth will always prevail. It was a guarantee that they missed something and that’s where we’ll start. During the dinner, Wei Liujiang’s wife said that the Second Lady Ye is sick and was sent to her grandmother’s house to rest. We’ll check up on the grandmother’s house and see if Second Lady Ye is really there.”

The Ye family would not be able to go against the Helian Mansion, especially with how determined and ruthless this royal family was. That thought actually settled Ye Jiayao.

It seemed that those two dogs would encounter bad fortune soon.

“Arrgh! Mu Qinchu and Wei Liujiang are such douchebags! I will beat them to a pulp if I see them again,” Helian Jing exclaimed angrily.

“Why are you so indignant?” Ye Jiayao felt bad. Chunyu used the Helian family to exact their revenge and now they were caught in the middle of it.

Helian Jing replied, “They made my mother mad and they did horrific, shameless things inside our home. For that, I will make them suffer.”

“So if I make your family mad one day, you’ll make me suffer, too?” Ye Jiayao was upset. If Little Jing finds out the truth one day, would he be angry at her? Would he blame her?

Helian Jing turned to her with a slight smile. “You? How could you ever do that? My grandmother adores you. When I greeted Old Ancestress this morning, she gushed about you!”

Helian Jing cleared his throat and squinted his eyes, thinning his lips a bit. He said, mimicking his grandmother’s voice, “Little Jing, Li Yao was not born in a rich family, but he has a good personality. He is much better than your other rich and spoiled friends.”
